Sefer Devarim with Be'er Mayim Chaim Commentary, The Sadigura Kloiz Copy.

Sefer Devarim with Rashi and commentary of Be'er Mayim Chaim, printed entirely on blue paper, probably the Tschernowitz edition. A copy with special provenance, as it had been property of the Kloiz in Safed established by the first Rebbe of Sadigura, R. Avraham Yaakov Friedman. R. Avraham Yaakov was the son of the famed Ruzhiner Rebbe R. Yisroel Friedman of Ruzhin. 

Seen on initial leaf a small handwritten inscription written in Hebrew, which reads: "This belongs to the Kloiz of our holy master, teacher of the entire diaspora of Sadigura, may he live and be well, here in the Holy city of Safed". Please refer to the Hebrew translation for the original text.

In moderate condition. Lacking title page and first leaf; a large open tear to second leaf with loss. Lacking binding. Lacking last several leaves. Housed in a leather box. 

168 pp.
